Green dollars refer to which type of money?

Green dollars refer to which type of money?

• A. Uniquely Marine Corps money
• B. Navy aviation program funds
• C. Joint funds for multiple services
• D. DoD-wide standard funds

Answer: (A)

Green dollars are funds that stay within the Marine Corps, controlled and obligated only by the Marine Corps for its own programs. This is why they’re described as uniquely Marine Corps money—they aren’t shared with other services, nor allocated as part of Navy aviation funds, joint funding, or DoD-wide standards. In DoD budgeting, service-specific funds like green dollars are tracked separately to maintain clear accountability and alignment with the Marine Corps’ own missions and requirements. The other fund types—Navy aviation program funds, joint funds for multiple services, and DoD-wide standard funds—are meant for cross-service use or broader Department-wide purposes, not exclusively for the Marines.
